Instant Rava Uthhapam

Ingredients :

• Rava/Soji - 2 cups
• Yogurt - 3/4 cup
• Onion - 1
• Green chillies - 7-8
• Black Pepper cons - 12-15
• Salt
• Oil
• Water

Procedure:

• Add 1 n half cup water to the yogurt and beat thoroughly. This is  called buttermilk.
• Soak the Rava/Soji in buttermilk. Add buttermilk enough to soak the rava completely and there is about an inch of buttermilk above the rava/soji surface.
• Let this sit for 10-15 minutes.
• The rava soaks the buttermilk and puffs up. If the batter appears too thick/dry, add some more buttermilk. 
• Note: The batter should be liquidy so that we can pour it on the pan and it spreads all over the pan, it should not be too liquidy, else we get very thin rava dosas. We are looking for a little thick batter for uthhapam.
• Add finely chopped onion, finely chopped green chillies, salt, black pepper cons to the batter. 
• Heat a pan, sprinkle/pour 1 tsp oil. 
• Once hot, pour the batter using a round serving spoon.
• Cover with a lid and let it cook for about 3-4 minutes on medium flame. The uthhapam changes colour. Flip and cook again for 3-4 minutes covered with a lid.
• Serve hot with chutney/podi. Also good to have as it is without any chutney.
